Did you hear about the probate executor that was an Olympic Gold Medalist?

Well, I am not sure if there has actually been any, but what I am sure of is that you should have a gold medal for all that you have been doing to handle your probate executor/administrator duties.

You see we are very much alike. You were chosen as an executor because you are known as someone who can handle challenges like nobody else can.

...and I chose to go through the challenges and difficulties of becoming a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist because I like helping people who, like you, know how to get things done.

As you can tell by my follow up, work ethic and ability to specialize in probate real estate, my service is second to none. That is exactly why you should call me today at (312) 585-5584.

There is a difference between a real estate agent and a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist. I am a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist (CPRES).

As your Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist (CPRES), I will make sure that you fulfill your fiduciary responsibility to all of the people involved in the estate, and that includes selling the property for the highest price possible.

If the debts of the estate are excessive, then it is even more important to sell the property in probate for the absolute highest price.

The more you hear from me, the more you know that I care about my clients and I hope that I can serve you as you proceed to settle your probate estate.

Sincerely,

John King

Probate Specialist

According to the National Association of Realtors, staging (putting furniture and other things to make a property look more like a home) a house can increase the price and help the property sell faster.

Do you know why?

Before I answer that, let me ask you an important question:

How much easier would life be if you could get an offer within 30 days after listing the probate property for sale?

Ok, now for the why.

​Only 10% of all home buyers have the ability to visualize what something would look like after they do their fix ups and move in.

If you are not familiar with the benefits of staging a house then you are missing out on TIME and MONEY.

TRUE STORY..
One time there was a real estate agent that was helping a woman sell 2 rental houses, same exact model and floor plan, both were fixed up to sell and both in the same general area.

The difference was one property was staged and the other was not...

Why? Because the seller did not want to invest the money to stage 2 houses, even though she could have and her real estate agent suggested that she do so.

Here is what happened:

The staged house sold 3 weeks faster (and for slightly more money) than the property that was not staged!

Staging is one of the best ways to increase the sales price of your probate property. I can show you how I have helped so many people just like you and just how easy this can be!

Remember, as the person in charge of the estate, you MUST always maximize the value of all assets that the estate holds, especially the real property.

Let me help you with some basic steps that can turn this selling experience into a painless and speedy process.

To make sure you are on the right path, call me at (312) 584-3747 to set up an appointment...Why, you may ask?

Because I can show you my #1 strategy to make sure you will be getting the HIGHEST price possible for the estate’s real property.

Sincerely,

John King

Boom — from clean-out to close.

That is what AtoZ Probate is built for.

When a family is dealing with probate, the house can quickly become the part that slows everything down.

It is not just a property.

It may be full of belongings, family memories, repairs, mail, valuables, clean-out decisions, and questions nobody feels ready to answer.

My name is John King, and through AtoZ Probate, I help families, executors, personal representatives, and attorneys with the non-legal property side of probate.

I do not provide legal advice. The attorney handles the legal side.

My role is to help with the property side.

That means helping families understand what needs to happen with the house — clean-out, personal property concerns, vendor coordination, valuation, sale preparation, and the next steps needed to move forward.

Many families get overwhelmed because they are trying to handle grief, paperwork, family communication, and property decisions all at the same time.

Sometimes the executor is out of town.

Sometimes the home is full.

Sometimes nobody knows who should be doing what.

And sometimes the family just needs a calm person to help create a practical plan.

That is where AtoZ Probate comes in.

We help organize the property side so the family can move from confusion to clarity.

From the first walk-through, to clean-out, to vendor coordination, to getting the home ready for the next step — we help bring order to the process.

So if your family is handling an inherited home and you are not sure where to start, remember this:

You do not have to figure out the house alone.

AtoZ Probate.

Boom — from clean-out to close.
